Every race and culture comes with it’s stereotypes. No race is going to become extinct. With that being said it is amazing that it took 200 years for America to mesh together blacks and whites. Obviously everything is not perfect today but I like to think we are getting there. Everyone throughout their educational journey through school learns of the discrimination towards women and blacks. White men were always considered the elite race, but what made them considered the best? People grow up with a mindset of who they like and who they don’t like for reasons that literally make no sense. It is not their fault it is just the way they were raised; especially the older generation in society. They were used to the segregation of blacks and whites. They thought nothing of it because that was what the texts in school were telling them and that is all they knew. The famous, women are only good for cooking and sex kills me to hear. I honestly have said it before as a joke and not in front of a female audience. That does not mean I feel that way at all but guys are guys and insulting women is going to be done by men forever. Half of the reason for this is the way boys are brought up through school. They learn about women’s rights and that is when the stereotyping occurs. In most cases the stereotyping isn’t true but the only way for a stereotype to start is if some of it is true. My girlfriend is an awesome girl and I can confidently say that she does not fall under the normal jokes directed towards women. I respect people’s feelings towards others but society as a whole needs to not be single minded and give everyone respect unless there is a solid reason to do so instead of bullshit stereotypes.
